Shanghumukham Beach
Bedste tid at besøge
Weekday afternoons around sunset (4.30-6.30 PM) are magical, as the sky explodes in orange and pink over the sea. Avoid Sundays when the locals gather in large crowds.
Budgettips
The beach is completely free to visit all year round. Pack your own picnic basket and water bottle, the street food stands at the entrance are cheap but bring cash.

Om
Hurtige fakta: En 35 meter lang havfrueskulptur af kunstneren Kanayi Kunhiraman rejser sig ud af sandet og er blevet strandens selvfølgelige mødested. Flyenes indflyvning til den nærliggende lufthavn passerer så lavt over vandet, at hele landingsøvelsen udspiller sig lige foran strandgæsterne.
Højdepunkter: Havfruen Jalakanyaka har ansigtet vendt mod havet og fungerer som strandens stille symbol, skabt af samme kunstner, der formede mange af regionens offentlige skulpturer. Ved lavvande blottes hundredvis af meter hård sand, hvor familier vader ud blandt strandede både, langt ud over den kraftfulde brænding.
Insidertips
- Position yourself near the mermaid for sunset pictures with a beautiful silhouette
- Strap your shoes to your bag and walk barefoot on the hard sand at low tide
- Bathing is dangerous due to strong currents, enjoy the sea from the beach instead
- Bring a shawl or thin jacket, the evening breeze from the water quickly turns chilly
